Bytemobile Unveils New T3100 Adaptive Traffic Manager Product Line for Enhanced Subscriber Experience

In an effort to help mobile operators improve the quality of experience (QoE) for their subscribers, Bytemobile (News - Alert), Inc., the video optimization and Smart Capacity solutions provider for mobile network operators, recently introduced its new product line – the T3000 Adaptive Traffic Management System.

Due to the presence of disparate elements in a network, mobile data traffic management is becoming an increasingly complex challenge for operators. An approach comprising holistic control over video transcoding, delivery and policy can address the challenge of increasing bandwidth consumption.  Bytemobile’s T3000 Series is expected to bring about a fundamental change in traffic management architecture for mobile networks.

The T3000 Series products will enable operators to manage millions of mobile subscribers’ access to rich content and applications through a single platform, Bytemobile explained in a press release.

Bytemobile announced that the first T3000 Series product, the T3100 Adaptive Traffic Manager is currently available.

Being developed as a fully integrated in-line platform, the T3100 Adaptive Traffic Manager removes the cost and complexity of deploying and managing multiple traffic control elements in the network. It is capable of automatically adapting and managing all mobile Internet Protocol (IP) traffic based on real-time network conditions. This, in turn, allows the subscribers to access video content from YouTube, Netflix and other sites, download and use Android and iPhone applications, and engage in Skype and Facebook (News - Alert) video chats. It will be a great advantage for the mobile operators as all these sources together account for more than 50 percent of all data traffic on mobile networks today.

The solution helps reduce capital expenditures and operating expenses associated with a combination of network elements for caching, load balancing, deep packet inspection (DPI), web and video optimization, policy control, and analytics. This reduces the operators’ total cost of ownership (TCO) for traffic management by up to 50 percent within months of deployment. As a net result, the product helps improve the utilization and performance of existing network capacity by 30-50 percent.

“We built the T3000 Series to solve a fundamental problem in mobile networks. The increasingly bandwidth-hungry video, applications and rich multimedia content traversing 3G and 4G radio access networks today have become too complex for existing traffic management solutions. While today’s solutions are focused on three standard levels of traffic management, the T3100 – as the industry’s first Adaptive Traffic Manager – can detect and react to network conditions in the cell, radio access network (RAN) and core in milliseconds. With intelligence that spans seven dimensions of traffic control and unparalleled control functions to inspect data traffic at all layers of the network, the T3100 measures each subscribers QoE in real time, enabling operators to dynamically adjust traffic flows to maximize the user experience,” vice president of products at Bytemobile Chris Koopmans noted in a statement.

In June, Bytemobile announced enhancements to the company's traffic reporting and analytics solution. This new release of the Smart Capacity Mobile Analytics solution was designed to provide operators with improved insights to mobile data congestion, application traffic patterns and subscriber experience on their networks.
